Get tweets using angularjs

Question

I am trying to make an app with material design and angularjs to get the tweets using hashtag search.

getTweets: function(hashtag, since,$http) {
                    var cfg = {};
                    var paramSince = since ? '&since_id='+ since : '';
                    var queryUrl = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=%23'+hashtag+paramSince;
                   // var queryUrl = '/search?hashtag='+hashtag+paramSince;
                    var promise = $http.get(queryUrl, cfg).then(function (response) {                        
                        return response;
                    });
                    return promise;
        }

This API returns error 215, Bad Authentication Data

$http is undefined. You injected $http service into your twitterApp.services factory, then you (try) redeclared it inside the returned function getTweets. In this case there is no "magic", you call getTweets with two arguments, so $http becomes undefined. The solution is removing this parameter from getTweets and use $http as a closure.

UPDATE: There's no error handling in the process, you have to reject the promise when error occurs. This way you can also see the error comes from the server.

As you can see on the console, when trying to get connected, the server returns an origin error:

Error: Origin "http://run.plnkr.co/Of0F9UHpjhrqkjdw/" does not match any registered domain/url on oauth.io(…)

It's probably about settings in your server (in this case, oauth.io) in terms of CORS.

thanks, but why does the twitter api returns bad authentication? — Sajeetharan, Sep 28 '15 at 11:44
